'97
by Naked Philosophy

I helped the Scottish defeat the English at a Bridge called Sterling
Many good men died that day beneath banners unfurling
I sailed on a Barbary ship before they drew the line
That separated church and state, but not for the last time

This '97's like the last '97 like every '97 before
Genocide, greed, hatred, disease, famine, and war
Next '97's just another '97, at least if they make it that far
I'm doing what I can to help, and must do it forevermore

I watched the Mayans fall in the name of a tyrant King
Wept with the women and children at the sight of this terrible thing
I saw the other shoe drop when the Catholics had their turn
As 26 died in Nagasaki. Will they ever learn?

This '97's like the last '97 like every '97 before
Genocide, greed, hatred, disease, famine, and war
Next '97's just another '97, at least if they make it that far
I'm doing what I can to help, and must do it forevermore

I saw two souls get joined today
And it filled my heart with glee
This species might survive after all
Without any help from me

This '97's like the last '97 like every '97 before
Life, joy, and hope go on forevermore
Next '97's just another '97 and I think they'll make it that far
I've done what I could to help, it's not needed anymore

(f/ Fluffy) - Great idea, though a lot of the lyrics not fitting very well. Acoustic guitar sounds great. Nice idea with the breakdown. Good ideas, suffering slightly in the execution. Chorus is pretty cool.
